The world’s (second) greatest villain is ready to dominate… with a little help from his army of Minions!  The trailer doesn’t say much about the movie, but Minions are kind of odd and cute at the same time.  

I am pleased to meet Gru’s little, yellow Minions who have taken over the third teaser trailer for the upcoming 3-D CGI Feature, Despicable Me starring Steve Carell and Jason Segel!

It looks like the Minions are in the story because no villain – even the world’s (second) greatest villain – can do everything by himself.  So it comes as no surprise that Gru has an entire army of not-so-bright Minions to help him carry out his diabolical plans. Hardworking and devoted to their leader and his mad exploits, the Minions are content to serve as his crash test dummies along the way. After all, Gru is planning the biggest heist in the history of the world…to steal the moon!   

Despicable Me also stars Russell Brand, Will Arnett, Kristen Wiig, Danny McBride, Miranda Cosgrove, Jack McBrayer, Mindy Kaling, Jemaine Clement and Julie Andrews.   The movie opens July 9, 2010.
